A WISE POLICY.

The Dignified, Manly Course Of the Ad-
ministration in Dealing with Great Brit
ain in the Fishery Troubles.
The President transmitted to the
House of Representatives a volumin-
GUS document, containing all the cor
respondence that has passed between
the United States and Great Britain in
regard to the rights of American fish
ermen in the British North American
waters. The contents of this document
lead us to three conclusions: 1. That
the local Canadian authorities have
repeatedly, and. in some instances,
outrageously violated the rights Sc
cured to these fishermen, under the
treaty of 1918, between the United
States and Great Britain, and that they
show no disposition to discontinue this
system of aggression against these
rights, claiming the authority of local
law for their proceedings. 2. That
Secretary Bayard has, by no means,
been as Indifferent and dilatory in deal
ing with this question as he is repre-
sented to have been by partisan news
papers, that are politically hostile to
him and the Administration of Presi-
dent Cleveland; but that, on the con-
trary, he has repeatedly and earnestly
protested against these outrages, and
respectfully, but firmly. called the at
tention of the British Government
to them. 8. That the British Gov
ernment has been exceedingly tardy
and apologetic in dealing with this sub
ject, and has practically, as yet, done
nothing by way of stopping and re-
dressing these wrongs. The President
recommends Congress to give this sub
ject its early attention, and raises the
question whether some additional leg.
islation on our part is not called for.
Secretary Bayard suggests that proper
steps should be taken by Congress to
allow proofs to be made of all losses
and injuries to our fishermen, as the
basis of future demand against Great
Britain for indemnity. The American
people desire to maintain amicable re-
lations with Great Britain; but they are
able to defend, and will defend, the
treaty rights of their fishermen in Ca
madam waters, and will hold Great Brit
ain responsible for and violation OF
these rights.-M. Y Independent.
The Republicans of Minnesota
think they know how it came about
that their candidate for Governor ran
about seven thousand behind the can
didate for Lieutenant-Gove They
think that Mr.. Charles A. Gilman, who
was candidate for the Gubernatorial
nomination and failed to get it, not
only sulked in his tent but sent out
word to his friends to oppose the head
of the ticket. This belief is strength
ened by the fact that in those counties
where Gilman was expected to be the
strongest Mr.. McGill got the smallest

Is recommended by some foreign writers
on agriculture, who claim that the ami
mails suffer no injury from standing on
this mass of litter and excrements-
Cellars under the stables where horses
and cattle are kept are excellent for
preserving and decomposing their
manure, but their influence on the
health of the animals and the fodder
stored for their use is certainly unfa-
vorable. A somewhat damp barn-ysrd
in which hogs run, and where they
root over litter and mix the dung OF
cattle and horses, is favorable to max.
ing manure, but the gain in fertilizing
material is probably obtained at loss
in the condition of the animals kept in
such 8 place. With q scraper and
shovel the manure can be removed to
a part of the yard where it will decom-
pose under the most favorable condi-
tons, and where its presence will not
interfere with the comfort of stock. 1t
can often be piled in corner to excel
lent advantage. A strong fence will
furnish support on two sides, and a
wall of stones or sods can keep it in
place on the other sides. Every morn
ing after the cows are MIXED their
droppings can be thrown into this re-
ceptacle, and the remainder of the yard
kept neat and clean.-Chicago Times.

Superseding the Horse.

In the German army the experiment
is being tried of mounting the aides
and messengers, as well as some MEM
bers of the staff, upon bicycles and tri-
cycles. The roads and fields on the
continent are in such excellent condi-
ton that these wheeled vehicles can be
easily used. As is well known bicy-
Gle can, in time, run down the swiftest
horse, and then it is cheap to keep. OF
course, horses would have to be used
for dragging heavy artillery and for
cavalry purposes. Horsemen can no
longer be used for charging upon lines
of infantry. The magazine rife has
put an end to all such exploits. But
for raids, tearing down telegraph poles,
cutting off detachments, regiment Of
wheelmen might be quite as useful a.
a troop of horse. Monthly.

are as well out of the earth as in it, yet it
